In some ways no, but in some ways he hasn't been better. The bar should be set higher than playing like garbage regardless.

If Parekh was a veteran, then I could see why comparing him to Weegar and Andersson makes sense, but this kid is our best prospect and shouldn't be handled the same way a veteran is. His development is more important than what he can contribute now. Patience is key. Sending him down wouldn't be a punishment for playing bad, just an acknowledgement that he isn't ready.
