In the most recent realignment it was stated they may need to award Captain positions to new hires. This is because not all FO's eligible to bid captain have shown an interest. If all eligible FO's bid then it most likely won't happen until the next realignment/vacancy. There has been no mention of street captains, only rumors. Even though awarding it to new hires is very close.
