Team Pitcher Usage Pages Now Have Postseason Data
hey @fangraphs @megrowler Is there a way to hook up the player usage sections of team pages to postseason game data? This is exactly when they would be most useful, but since they only read regular season games they think there’s no recent activity to show. pic.twitter.com/K2NMVVdPoh

It struck us as a good feature to add. How a team deploys its pitching staff during the playoffs is always interesting, but it seems especially ripe for analysis in an October like this one with so few scheduled days off. We were able to refine and improve our data query to include postseason data, so you can now find playoff pitcher usage data current through last night on our team pages.
As always, let us know in the comments if something looks amiss, or if there are other features you’d like to see on the site. Thanks so much for reading!
