Posada, I think, will be back behind the plate, catching.
Moving him to 1B? What about Morgan Ensberg? He will step up and produce, as he has proved so in the past. Maybe you sign a average 1B free-agent, and let him and Ensberg split the time, so Ensberg gets used to the system. I know Ensberg isn't the guy that can step up and everything will be fine, but ease him into the starting job. Isn't that why you got him in the 1st place?
But, also, ever think about the idea of extending Giambi's contract? He's gotten a better fielder, actually, and although he can only produce a little batting, his Power and strength are just what the Yankees need. They don't have alot of Home-run guys that bomb it out every day, such as Ryan Howard, David Ortiz, etc. Some players produce at the power end, but Giambi could play 1B.
Overall, you can move things around with Ensberg and Free Agency, possibly Giambi, to find a good fit. The Yankees are a smart team and they'll know what they need and when they'll need it.
