Didn't matter for Doumit…. Escobar Bartlett Santana (has he in LF?) So why should we care that Parm hasn't either. This is company culture at this point.
I think the Twins front office is very surprised to be sitting two games above .500 at this point. This explains the mind-boggling gambles a bit early in the year (not that I agreed with it at all) with Bartlett and CF roster bungling. They probably thought (with good reason… and this still may very well happen) that we'd be 8-10 games back by this point and hoped for some miracles, buzz and name-recognition in another lost season. Now that we are above .500 I bet (I hope) they rue those decisions.
