Time to compain about my team again!
My implosion is nearly complete - I'm trying my best to make moves because of injuries (drafted some injury risks is part of that) and a bad draft.

After 11 weeks - 25 games above .500 and may have been first or second with Steve (whose team is now on a roll),
Last 10 weeks - 32 games below .500.
Now 7 games below .500, and only a 0.5 game ahead for the last playoff spot.
In the first half I picked up some gems who were playing well but they fizzled as expected (Heliot Ramos)

In retrospect my draft was a disaster!
3 of my top 4 picks have stunk in the second half (Harper, Rutschmann, Julio Rodriguez)

Of the 20 players players I drafted 6-25, only 7 of 20 remain active in the league.   5 on my team

Injured for rest of year (or released due to injury)- 6,7,9, 12, 13, 14, 17, 22
Released for Poor Play (and still FA)- 11, 19, 20, 21,  25
Released and Re-acquired by somebody else - 24
Bad Trade - 15 (Keller) for Chourio (bad release)
Still Contributing - 8 (Steer), 10 (Bibee). 16 (Eovaldi). 18 (Verlander). 23 (Pepiot)

In the first half I picked up some gems who were playing well and they continued it for a while (Heliot Ramos) but eventually they fizzled as expected.
