Even with another 787 coming next month and 4 more over the winter, I think that is going to be way too many Captains. I imagine the "cleanup" displacement will be issued shortly after this one closes!
Only 28 guys going to LAX 787 FO and SFO 787 FO, so maybe there won't be bumps there.
LAX and SFO 787 FO are already overstaffed and that's without most of the folks that went there from the first couple displacements not trained yet. There will still be a slight decrease in SFO 787 block hours by mid winter and only a slight increase, if not flat, in LAX 787 hours even while considering SIN. Hope you're right though.
If the 787 Captain displacement is significant they will have to do at least two cleanup displacements to get the west coast right. Then we can get ready for DCA 777, LAX 777, IAH 777 and 756, CLE, and GUM.
