The easy answer to this question would be US Grant. However the term of "capable" can be interpreted in a number of ways. Capable means able , not successful. Union General George B. McClellan was highly intelligent, highly inventive and the best army organizer the Union had,He used solid strategies, however was not successful. Grant was successful but many will say he simply attacked and attacked with little regard for the sacrifices and deaths this caused. In summary, this is a debatable answer. Robert E. Lee said that McClellan was "capable".
