No second baseman has had a higher career OPS+ than Grich’s 125 since he retired in ‘86. Not Biggio (112), Sandberg (114), Alomar (116), Whitaker (117), Utley (117), Kent (123), or Cano (124).
Note that Morgan (132) retired 2 years before Grich, and Carew (131), who played more games at 1B than 2B retired a year before Grich. Altuve is currently at 129.
Grich was also an elite fielder in his early years.
