Give me your best collapse story. This team was hanging onto first at 71-60, then proceeded to go on a 4-21 stretch to fall into last place.

My collapses, and there have been many, tend to start around opening day.

After around game 126, you play 36 games vs. division opponents, half the season total is back loaded on the end of the schedule. Without looking too closely, I'd say your team was designed to do well against most of the teams in the league, except (unfortunately) your own division.

We were above .500 vs division before this stretch.

Jamesgang, I am in that league with you and have noticed your teams free fall. I originally was paying attention to your team because my team was scoring runs like crazy but I was shocked to see the pace your team was on.
