Walt Terrell is a sinker-slider workhorse-type pitcher; i.e. ideal for
parks with short fences and real grass.  The Mets acquired him along
with Ron Darling from the Texas Rangers for Lee Mazzilli (yes, it's
true!) in 1982.  He came up from Tidewater in June or July of 1983,
and went 8-8 with a 3.4? ERA.  Last year he was 11-12 with a 3.5? ERA.
He seems to be durable and consistently puts in his seven innings.  He
also hit two home runs in one game off Fergie Jenkins in 1983, something
he won't be able to do in Detroit.  He's an average fielder.

Not an ace, but a solid pitcher who would be in any team's rotation.
