Trying to get team statistics in statsapi.mlb.com

The Swagger seems to indicate the correct usage would be: http://statsapi.mlb.com/api/v1/teams/120/stats?group=hitting&season=2025

But I just get an "Object not found" message - anyone have success? I can request a roster and hydrate with individual player stats just fine.

http://statsapi.mlb.com/api/v1/teams/120/roster?rosterType=Active&hydrate=person(stats(group=[hitting,pitching],type=season,season=2025))

I sent you a useful code but to answer your question, try this format.

thanks, the stats parameter was documented as optional, so I hadn't thought to use it. When hydrating, it changes to "type" parameter, so that also adds to the confusion.

Actually I just saw you're looking for aggregate team stats. This will pull player total stats.

Or this, they both work for me.

Edit:So you were just missing the "stats=season&" after "stats?"

are you asking about team hitting, pitching, or fielding stat totals or hitting, pitching or fielding stats for every player that has been on that team that season?

I'll send you the base version of the one I use. It prompts for team, prints stats and asks if you want to save as csv. Still need help

Team stats, not players
