The 4 call-up rule makes no sense. MLB rosters expand after trade deadline, so does the CFL rosters. Why out a limit on call-ups, who does it help?
I'll always remember Seattle calling up our ace pitcher from the Cannons before his start for the PCL championship game. We lost the game and the called up pitcher never played for Seattle.

In the fifth game, the Cannons were forced to start Dennis Powell on two days rest after the Mariners unexpectedly recalled intended starter Dave Fleming prior to the game. The move left Russ Parker "upset" and "dumbfounded".[20] The relationship between the Mariners and Cannons was never the same.[21]
