I'm curious if you have read Astroball by Ben Reiter?
Some pretty compelling stuff in there about Beltran- not only regarding his leadership capabilities but his great baseball acumen as well. Granted, he is inexperienced, and this might not work out (it often takes some failure and a few firings before a manager becomes truly great) but Beltran doesn't seem like a bad choice at all to me.
