Dan Shulman to join Blue Jays broadcasts in 2016

Though it's been a relatively quiet offseason for the Toronto Blue Jays, the team's official broadcaster announced a major addition Thursday.

Award-winning Canadian sportscaster Dan Shulman will call upward of 30 Blue Jays games for Sportsnet in both 2016 and 2017, joining Buck Martinez and Pat Tabler in the booth.

"I'm thrilled to once again be calling Blue Jays games," Shulman said in a release. "As someone who was born and raised and still lives in the GTA, the opportunity to come back home is very exciting for me. I'm looking forward to being part of the Sportsnet team, alongside Buck, Tabby and all the other great people on the crew."

Shulman, who called Blue Jays games from 1995-2001, will also continue to work on ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball.
