Template:MLB team season stats

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

To use this template, copy and paste this text to a baseball player's external links section:

{{MLB team season stats |mlb= |espn= |br= |retro= |almanac= }}

Add the team's ID after the equals sign to properly direct the links that you desire to have. If you do not specify an ID, the site will not be shown. Generally, the ID is the same among years, and is often reused among parameters.

The year parameter automatically pulls from the title of the page.

Example

The following example links won't work, per the above. However, they are useful to showcase how parameters may change based on team.

Example for 2023 Texas Rangers:

{{MLB team season stats |mlb=texas-rangers |espn=TEX |br=TEX |retro=TTEX02024 |almanac=TEX}}

results in:

• Team season information and statistics from MLB, or ESPN, or .shtml Baseball Reference, or /TTEX02024.htm Retrosheet, or &t=TEX Baseball Almanac

However, for the 2019 Tampa Bay Rays:

{{MLB team season stats |mlb=tampa-bay-rays |espn=TB |br=TB |retro=TTBA02019 |almanac=TBR}}

results in:

• Team season information and statistics from MLB, or ESPN, or .shtml Baseball Reference, or /TTEX02024.htm Retrosheet, or &t=TEX Baseball Almanac

To find a team's ID, find the team's page on a website and locate a string of numbers or letters in the URL similar to the ones above. Generally it's the team abbreviation (for ESPN, Baseball Reference, and Baseball Almanac), a parameterized version of the name for MLB, and a code for Retrosheet.
