I have a similar problem because I use bigfonts. If you are going to make a lot of these plots, you can change the default for left, bottom, height, and width in your matplotlibrc file. Look for the lines:
figure.subplot.left : 0.15 #0.125 # the left side of the subplots of the figure figure.subplot.right : 0.925 # the right side of the subplots of the figure figure.subplot.bottom : 0.125 # the bottom of the subplots of the figure figure.subplot.top : 0.925 # the top of the subplots of the figure matplotlib looks for this rc file first in the working directory and then in your home directory (possibly looking in other places along the way). So, you could put a copy of matplotlibrc in the directory where you are making a lot of these plots if you don't want to change the bottom setting for all your plots.
