In a stunning and monumental move that’s sending shockwaves through the baseball world, the Texas Rangers have announced the return of a franchise icon. Hall of Famer and lifelong Rangers hero **Nolan Ryan** is officially rejoining the team — not on the mound, but in the front office — as **co-owner**, effective at the start of the 2025 season.
The announcement was made earlier today by the **Ray Davis family**, current principal owners of the Rangers, during a press conference held at Globe Life Field. The family confirmed that they have reached a historic agreement with the Ryan family to bring **Evan Nolan Ryan**, the son of Nolan Ryan and a respected figure in sports management, into the ownership group. This will mark Nolan Ryan’s official return to the organization in a leadership capacity since his departure in 2013.
> “This is a full-circle moment for our family,” said Nolan Ryan, 78, during the live press event. “The Rangers are in my blood. To be back, not just as a supporter but as a co-owner alongside my son, is an honor I never dreamed possible.”
Though some initial reports mistakenly referred to Nolan Ryan as a former third baseman, fans know him as one of the greatest **pitchers** in MLB history. Ryan played a pivotal role in shaping the Rangers’ identity, both on and off the field, and later served as team president during the Rangers’ back-to-back World Series appearances in 2010 and 2011.
Evan Ryan, a business-savvy executive with deep ties to both sports and media industries, will take on a more active leadership role in the front office. Sources suggest he will focus on baseball operations, development, and innovation, while his father provides vision, legacy leadership, and fan engagement.
> “This is more than just a business deal,” said Evan Ryan. “It’s about bringing a legacy home — and writing the next chapter for a team and fanbase that means the world to us.”
The move comes at a time of transformation for the Rangers, who have enjoyed a resurgence in recent seasons and are looking to build a long-term dynasty. With the Ryans at the helm, fans and analysts alike believe the franchise is poised for a golden era.
As fans flood social media with reactions — many emotional — one sentiment rings clear: **Nolan Ryan is home**.
