Pickering was a standout arm at the Preseason ID. This 2026 RHP has shown to be a competitor that can generate swing & miss with multiple pitches, keeping hitters off balance. Pickering moves well on the mound and uses his lower body efficiently. As he continues to gain size he could become an effective arm for the Abbotsford Cardinals. Pickering’s combination of sinker and change-up look very similar, but the movement and velocity difference will generate plenty of ground balls for him this season. Keep this 2026 on watch this season as he gears up for what looks to be a bounce back season for the Cardinals.
