Mora is way, way, way, way the hell less valuable than ARod. First off, ARod is a brilliant defensive thirdbaseman, unlike Mora, who is a butcher. Also, Mora is older than ARod, doesn't have the history of career success that ARod has, and is unlikely to post numbers as good as his last couple of years. Let us also not forget that Mora gets injured quite a bit, ARod not so much.
I'm going to give a big edge to Posada over Lopez as I don't think the latter is going to stay healthy at all. If he does, Posada is still a better hitter.
Oh, and Giambi is definitely better than Palmeiro.
