By the end of the college regular season I have in 40 games (college and about half a dozen HS). In summer I do a few men's league games, maybe a DH a week, and do U18 tournaments 8-10 games over 3 days every other weekend. I take every other weekend completely off, and in a 14 day period work 5 or 6 of the days. This is, I think, JRutledge's advice to be selective in action. When kiddie ball (U16 or lower) calls, I take Nancy Reagan's advice.
By Aug. 1, I have in about 90 games. That's plenty. The key to me for staying a little fresher in summer is stringing together 3-5 days off from the field in a row after the school season ends. After the summer tournaments are over in early August, one DH a week of MSBL 'til October is good enough.
I think a few guys have written about summer ball and how to keep it quiet. Eject by the boatload for two seasons, after that you can go entire summers without dumping anyone. Of course, I don't worry about keeping guys in the game even in school ball. Again, as I've read here written by someone else, they know how to stay in the game.
