Is Nick Punto a "Winner"?

The following is dedicated specifically to baakre's mother-in-law, a.k.a. Nick Punto's #1 Fan.  Having taken the winter off from even thinking much about the Twins after last season's 99-loss performance; I am just now getting around to racking my brain to figure out what happened between 2010 and 2011.  This morning, the solution came to me: the Twins lost Nick Punto!  Could it be?  Is Punto a "winner"?  Was he a significant piece of this roster for all those years and all those Central Division titles, so much so that it caused a first-to-worst debacle?  Let me see if I can prove this idea true...or even close.
