Every narrowbody fleet (717, 220, 737, 320, 7ER) will be available for new hires for the foreseeable future. The 320 and 737 especially are critically short staffed in the right seat. For any given class, however, one of those fleets may be featured more heavily than others, just depending on training capacity. As you can see from the 5/24 drop a few posts back it was skewed towards the 320, followed closely by the 717. The 737 and 220 had much fewer spots. The next drop may be similar, or it could completely flip those numbers.
