Jamie Campbell - Blue Jays game analyst - has tweeted that he's being treated for a chronic leukemia - but is confident he'll be in the broadcast booth for the opening game in April.

On other news, Buck Martinez was on Sportsnet radio today - from Florida and he's still billed as a Blue Jays analyst.
There was a controversy last year - whether he was vaccinated and did not attend games at Rogers Centre.

Given that he's being billed as being on the broadcast team this year, will he be in the booth at Rogers Centre?  I was hoping that Dan Shulman would replace him - permanently.

First off, all the best to Jamie Campbell.

As for Buck Martinez, according to Rob Longley of the Toronto Sun, he will indeed be calling games in person in Toronto

Best wishes to Jamie.

Steve Simmons also reported the same about Buck,  in last Sunday's column.

From Longley:

>> Buck politely declined to talk about his vaccine status <<

Not good enough. Former pro athlete, still playing games.
