In 2010 the Giants, ranked 19th in regular season OBP, won the World Series against the Rangers. The Rangers were 6th in regular season OBP.
In 2005, the White Sox and Astros both had terrible OBP numbers. Yet they faced off against each other in the World Series.
Fenwick is a much less proven statistic than OBP, and therefore I think it's very likely that certain teams will be able to succeed despite putting up low numbers.
The Nashville Predators often put up poor Fenwick numbers and make the playoffs regardless. In the period from 2010-2012 they were ranked 24th in Team Fenwick yet made it to the semi-finals in both seasons.
Carlyle teams also seem to make the playoffs despite poor Fenwick numbers. Although exiting in the quarterfinals both times, the 10/11 Ducks and 12/13 Leafs were 29th and 30th in Fenwick respectively.
Just thought this would be an interesting topic to discuss.
