espn_mlb_player_career_stats: Get ESPN MLB Athlete Career Stats (Long Format)

Description

Returns career stats for an MLB athlete in long format. Default stat_type = 0L fetches the standard "All Splits" / regular-season view. Pass a vector like c(0L, 1L, 2L) to attempt multiple types and bind them via a stat_type_id column; variants that 404 for that athlete are silently skipped. Stat types: 0 = regular season (default endpoint), 1 = postseason, 2 = career aggregate. Coverage of types 1 and 2 is sparse — many athletes only have type 0 populated.
