I greatly enjoy the game, but want to see if others have experienced this before. I haven't in OOTP or any other baseball MGMT game I've ever played. I am not looking to make a change to the game, I'm simply curious to know if others have experienced something similar.

What I did and my dilemma. Started off Oakland (junk team in first season). Built the team up with great offense, 2 great pitchers, 2 good pitchers, monster bullpen, solid defense at each position... Season 2 starts great, then complete collapse to 103 loss.

Season 1: 70 wins, great young players. Loaded coaching staff, all outstanding/legendary in what they need to be good at.

Season 2: Improved the team with new players and improved players to make push for playoffs in year 2. Hovered between 3-6 games below .500 first until June.... On June 15th I started a winning streak to go 15-1, all against teams that were and finished above .500.... After that great streak that had me happy as a clam, my team followed this by going 16-63. I think in July my team only won 4 games.

Again, I'm not interested in making any changes to the game at all. I enjoy the challenge of trying to step up my game. I'm simply curious if other players have created a great team like this, to only have it fall apart so badly, with no injuries.
