To add-on to my first suggestion (having the in-game date in the name), perhaps it could be followed by the teams too?

Example: "Franchise File August 25th, 2018 Baltimore Orioles, LA Dodgers"

I'm not sure how many characters you can use, but perhaps it can start that way, get followed by an ellipses (...), and have the remaining characters be listed in the file information.

Example, "Franchise File August 28th, 2018 Baltimore Orioles, LA Dodgers, San Francisco Gian...."

With the full file name expanding all the teams being controlled under the file information.

You could even use abbreviations for the teams too to conserve space (BAL = Baltimore Orioles, for example).

Anyway, this would perfect for me but I'm not sure how practical it is in your end.
Yeah some sort of representation of the actual human-controlled teams is definitely the #1 preferred option, in my humble opinion. It's a bit disenchanting to go load a Mets franchise and see "Angels, Astros..." in the filename.

And then a in-game date would help distinguish that franchise from maybe a separate Mets franchise where I'm doing a fantasy draft, as well as distinguish back-up saves and such.
