Joe Morgan had a long career and a very high peak run of about 5 years. Bobby Grich put together a strong run of his own early in his career while Ryne Sandberg started fast and played less baseball than the other three. Jeff Kent, the most recently retired, got off to a slow start but still had a long run of productive seasons.
