Ryan’s future with Rangers up in the air

DALLAS (AP) — Nolan Ryan is synonymous with the Texas Rangers.
Yet, suddenly there seem to be some questions about Ryan’s future with the team. Primarily, how has his role changed and is he going to stay?
Since Ryan became the team’s president five years ago, the Rangers have made their only two World Series appearances. Those AL pennants came after he helped lead the team through a bankruptcy and was a primary figure in the ownership group that bought the team.
Speculation about Ryan’s future with the Rangers has been growing since some seemingly routine promotions. Team ownership last week gave general manager Jon Daniels and chief operating officer Rick George new presidential titles.
Included in that announcement was a statement from Ryan in which he said he was “proud of what we have accomplished as an organization over the last several years. ... That has been due in large part to the efforts of a lot of talented and dedicated individuals who work in all areas of the ballclub.”
