Tropeano was signed to a minor league contract by the Ranges with an invite to spring training, but didn't make the club and posted a 3.05 ERA with a 21/17 K/BB ratio over his 12 appearances and 20 2/3 innings with Triple-A Round Rock. He's now free to sign with another club, but the interest might be minimal. 

Tropeano split time between the Giants and Mets during the 2021 campaign, logging five major-league appearances in the process. The 31-year-old righty spent the majority of last season at the Triple-A level for the Mets, Giants and Dodgers organizations, posting a respectable 3.89 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 51/24 K/BB ratio across 46 1/3 innings (17 appearances, nine starts). He'll compete for a spot on the Rangers' Opening Day roster this spring.

Tropeano has seen some spot duty with the Giants and Mets this season. He'll provide depth for a club that's dealt with plenty of injuries.

Tropeano cleared waivers after the Mets removed him from their 40-man roster and has decided to look for a job elsewhere rather than accept an outright assignment.
