How many games do you play per season in franchise mode? I try to play one game per series unless it's a crucial series in the standings and it takes forever to get through seasons. I can obviously imagine playing all 162 would take even longer. How many games do you play per season to make sure you make it through multiple seasons at a reasonable rate?

I play every single game from Spring Training to Playoffs (providing I make it)

I usually find myself restarting Franchises a lot. But when I'm in them I usually play every game, unless I'm against a team I don't feel like playing more than once or twice. I'll also skip if I have to go up against R.A. Dickey or someone like that, unless it's a big game.

I used to only play one per series, or sometimes less depending. But that was before I could carry my save file over. I started up a Royals franchise last year in MLB 14 and am leading the division at 16-9. I have played every game and put in hours of work into it so I definitely plan to carry this save file forward. I'll likely start up one or two others on MLB 15 that I will be doing the same with.

It never made sense before because you'd never get far enough before the next game came out unless you had insane amounts of time. I find that quick counts really allows me to get 2-3 games in per day even with a busy schedule while also giving me enough control to feel like I truly played the game myself instead of simming.

One game per series during the regular season; every game during the playoffs. That way I get a good mix of teams and pitchers, and I also get to play all of the postseason games.

I also do one a series. Or around 50ish a season. If I'm far out of playoffs In September I'll sim most of it or vice versa if I'm 10 games up. Obviously play ever playoff game.

Every inning of every game since MLB 12.

I've been playing The Show for 8 years now. I always play franchise and yet I've NEVER finished one season.

One year I got through 90-95 games or so.

I play every game of any franchise I start, but I'm constantly restarting with different teams.

I feel like I'm cheating to sim through games but I may have to do this if I ever want to finish a season.
