Former MLB star and current Fox MLB analyst Alex Rodriguez praised the New York Mets' decision to hire Carlos Beltran as their new manager in an interview with TMZ Sports on Wednesday.
When asked about the hiring, A-Rod had nothing but good things to say about his former New York Yankees teammate: "Love Carlos. Great hire. Great person. New Yorker. His wife, Jessica, lives right here in the city. And, he's a baseball savant. I think the Mets are going to love him."
Rodriguez also has no concerns about Beltran's lack of managerial experience, saying: "He'll do great; he'll do great.
