## Changelog

### 0.1.0 - Unreleased

- MLB player season stats from the official MLB stats API
  (`statsapi.mlb.com/api/v1/stats`). `src/client.py`: curl-cffi with a
  Chrome/Firefox/Safari impersonation tuple, fresh proxy session id and
  profile on every retry, backoff 2s doubling to 30s, max 5 attempts, honours
  `Retry-After`; a request router refuses every URL that is not
  `/api/v1/stats` on the Stats API host before any network I/O.
- `src/parser.py`: flattens `splits[].stat{}` into typed columns (integer
  counts, numeric rates, innings kept in baseball notation) plus player, team,
  league and position identity.
- `src/scraper.py`: offset pager at `limit=50` over (season, group) jobs,
  stopping on `offset >= totalSplits`, an empty page or a page with nothing
  new; run-wide dedupe on (season, group, player, team, position);
  per-job fault isolation. An empty leaderboard finishes SUCCEEDED with zero
  rows; a block with nothing emitted fails the run.
- Default proxy is Apify Proxy datacenter (keyless public feed).
- Offline tests against trimmed real captures (no live network).
