He did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] Mondou spent the 2021 season with the Triple-A Las Vegas Aviators, playing in 87 games and hitting .283/.371/.432 with 8 home runs and 49 RBI.[8] He returned to Las Vegas in 2022, making 108 appearances and slashing .283/.374/.431 with 7 home runs and 64 RBI.[9]
