Rangers president Nolan Ryan didn't give a straight answer when asked whether the team had interest in free-agent Adrian Beltre. "Well, when you have a player of his caliber out there, you have to have an interest if it's realistic within what your budget is and how he would fit into your ball club and how you would hit him in the lineup and stuff of that nature," Ryan told the Dallas Morning News. "So, obviously with our ball club, it wouldn't be nearly as clear-cut as somebody else, say whether it be the Angels and the rumor is that Oakland has made him offer. I would say if you looked at the free agent market right now, he's probably the premier free agent that?s still unsigned."
