Atlanta Braves legend Paul Snyder has died at age 88. The former minor league player, scout and executive for the Braves and their minor-league teams was the architect of the “Team of the 90s,” which won 14 consecutive division titles and a World Series in 1995.
Snyder played and worked exclusively for the Braves throughout his 50-year career. He began his playing career for their minor league affiliate teams in 1958 before he started managing and scouting for them in 1963. He then moved up to the front office in 1973, where he remained until his retirement in 2007.
