September call ups?

Who you think?

Depends on who else gets called up this week so they can qualify for the postseason roster. No harm in having called the arms that have been called up so far since those aren't likely to significantly impact how much control the team has over them.

Honestly wouldn't shock me to see Riley called up early so they have the option of adding him for the playoffs if they so choose. Can always send him back to Gwinnett to start the season and delay his clock if they try to game it.

If A-Jax doesn't come up today, he'll likely be added. Gohara and Fried are likely going to be added to the pen, maybe Touki and Wilson as well. Maybe Pache as a pat on the back for his good work before he goes to the AFL.

I can't think of many worse ideas than calling up Pache. That would be incredibly bizarre.
 
Again, players do not have to be on the 40 man roster to be eligible for the postseason. An "injured" player can be replaced by anyone currently in the organization. The word "injured" is in quotes for a reason.

Players on the 40 man who aren't on the 25 man: https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/ATL/2018-roster.shtml

Arodys Vizcaino 10 day DL
Peter Moylan 10 day DL
Max Fried 10 day DL
Shane Carle 10 day DL
Touki Toussaint
Kolby Allard
Bryse Wilson
Ricardo Sanchez
Wes Parsons
Luiz Gohara
Adam McCreery
Rio Ruiz
Dustin Peterson

I would expect to see a LHH added, and Santana to find his way onto the 40 man in the not too distant future (Moylan moved to 60 day DL).
