In 1998 he played for the Arizona Diamondbacks, then with the San Francisco Giants from 1999-2003. He started 2004 with the San Francisco Giants before being traded to the Philadelphia Phillies. He began 2005 with the Yankees, after being traded from the Phillies for Center Fielder Kenny Lofton in a one-for-one deal. In spring training 2006, he signed with the Washington Nationals, but was released at the end of the season. He subsequently signed a minor league deal with the Marlins but didn't make the team and was released on March 28, 2007.
