During my seven years running this site, you've probably noticed a tendency to lean towards the optimistic side of things with the Pirates. I'd concede that I'm an optimist, but I generally hate black and white labels, and am not always optimistic about everything. That, too, has been seen on the site over the years.
But there definitely has been a tendency for more positivity and optimism than negativity. In terms of prospect coverage, that is to be expected. Prospects, in general, are all about optimism. You look at a prospect and look at his tools and dream about what he could become.
