The Houston Astros have spoken to Nolan Ryan in the month since he left as CEO of the Texas Rangers.
However, the Astros have not offered Ryan a front-office of advisory role.
"I have talked to Nolan," Jim Crane said. "We haven't really discussed anything about him joining the team yet. But that certainly could be a possibility down the road. It depends what Nolan wants. ... As far as an offer of us talking about a position, we haven't done that."
Ryan pitched eight seasons for the Astros, from 1980-88.
