Is there any way to turn off AUTO SAVE?

Two saves? Three saves? Paranoid? HA! I usually make saves just prior to the new regular season, just prior to the draft, just prior to the trade deadline, just prior to Sept 1, just prior to playoffs, right after WS, and during times in the off season. Then save files to other drives too. I may be the winner here!

I wish there was a way to turn off the autosave that saves a franchise/season when you first start one.
I start a lot of seasons for the sole purpose of exporting players, then I have to delete the save I never needed.
A minor annoyance, but still.

Yeah I know what you're talking about. At least it's less of a problem this year since we can have a much larger number of concurrent mode saves than 5 (why did you do that '16? Why?? )

Yes me too. I had a corrupt file after the all star break one season and I had no back up file. I had to start over. That totally sucked as I am one who plays every game every pitch. From then on I always make sure I have at least one back up file. I am in year 3 of my franchise. Couldn't imagine losing all that. I think I would just quit playing lol
