HOUSTON (AP) - Nolan Ryan could be a candidate to become president of the Texas Rangers. The Hall of Fame pitcher hasn't talked specifically with Rangers owner Tom Hicks about the possibility of taking the job, but their meeting last week did include discussion about whether such an opportunity would be attractive to Ryan, currently under contract with the Houston Astros.
He is a special assistant to the general manager and is in the last year of a five-year agreement with the team.
Ryan said the meeting with Hicks and other Rangers officials was "more of an opportunity to visit" than anything else and it was too early to determine where it might lead.
