Assuming you are a line holder yes. If you are on reserve no hotel in domicile is provided but your rotation should be ended with a domicile layover.

Heads up with more and more 321 coming online at Delta and other airlines. The wake turbulence from this thing is no joke. Encountered it yesterday and had full scale deflection with no response for a couple seconds.
My top three wake turbulence encounters have all been 321s under calm winds

My worst wake encounter ever was behind a 321 also.
It would have to go through the trip coverage ladder first. Category dependent of course, but seeing as how that would be a broken trip, decent chance somebody would pick it up before it went back to that very same reserve. In addition, the reserve would be put on long call and on a short layover might not have adequate rest to be assigned the remainder of the trip.

I agree with your points, but it's happened to me several times over the years in a short staffed category.
