It appears that the trip was broken up, and a SEA pilot was assigned to the first part of the trip. Can Crew Skds do that, per our contract. Or would a G/S request for a published rotation by an in-base pilot have no priority over an out of base reserve pilot. Again, the first leg was a d/h to SEA, and trip appears to be covered by a SEA pilot. Anyone?
I see them do that all the time. I could be wrong, and usually am about these things, but I don't think there is anything that requires them to put out green slips as opposed to breaking up trips.
For me and my questions like this, the answer normally winds up being, "Crew skeds can do what they want."
