 Ryan did not want to be traded from the Mets, and when it happened he felt betrayed by the team that drafted him.His views on this only calmed once he started running the Rangers and gained a better understanding of the business side of baseball.In five seasons with the Mets, 105 games and 74 starts, Ryan had a 29–38 record, with a 3.58 ERA, 1.39 WHIP, with 344 walks and 493 strikeouts in 511 innings.
