Sportsnet Taps Joe Siddall to Succeed Buck Martinez on Blue Jays TV, per Reports

The reported promotion preserves continuity by elevating an in-house analyst who has already worked with the current crew.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets citing the Toronto Sun report that Siddall will work 125–130 games alongside play-by-play announcer Dan Shulman in 2026.
  • Caleb Joseph is expected to handle the remaining game broadcasts and expand his role on Blue Jays Central with host Jamie Campbell.
  • Sportsnet is expected to add a third studio personality to the Blue Jays Central lineup.
  • Siddall previously filled in for Buck Martinez during his medical leave last season and moved from radio in 2014 to Sportsnet’s TV studio in 2018.
  • Martinez retired in February after a decades-long run with the organization, and Sportsnet has not yet issued a formal announcement of its 2026 broadcast team.
