A $75 million team salary and 1/3 of it is wrapped up in ONE guy...with 3/5 of it in 3 guys. That's never a good formula for success. When you have to scrape the bottom of the barrel for the rest of your team, you get a leadoff man batting .207, a team leader in HR with 6, both the starting CF and starting RF hitting under the Mendoza line and last year's MVP batting .203.
Hell, Lyle Overbay would be team MVP right now for the Twins.
