I am not sure that this move actually helps the Yankees any on the field. Mondesi's 736 OPS is nothing special. And not that the cost matters to the Yankees, but to me it looks like they just gave away some money and whatever they traded to get Mondesi without doing anything to improve their team.

I think his defense is better than Spencer or Vander Wal, his arm and the ground he covers.
Williams in center has been getting bad jumps on balls lately [ :-^) ], and maybe Modesi can help him out in center.
They sure don't need Mondesi to boost their power.
The Boston radio announcers said that the Yanks were the only team to ask Toronto about Mondesi, and looking at his stats, that isn't a surprise.
