As for getting time in DTW, as FO's upgrade, you may be a line holder in a couple months, unless people bid back from LAX when they can hold a line in DTW. I'd say about 8 months for 500 hours, if you are a line holder after 3 months of reserve.

I tried telling people this would happen but most disagreed. This is great news because it will help a ton with new hires lodging expenses. Probably only need to be in MSP 2 weeks vs 6...plus it's slightly warmer in STL?

Yep, warmer and free lodging for 3 weeks, can't beat that. Our class split is 4 weeks in MSP, 3 in STL.
