Maybe there is something in the future that makes pinnacle cheaper in the long run. Pinnacle pilots just signed a 7 tear contract. Are GoJet rates locked in for 7 years? What about the flight attendants, mechanics, corporate employees? Are they locked into a bad long term contracts like 9e union groups? No.

If this is all true, I feel bad for the Comair and Pinnacle guys who had to take the job as a last resort. They don't deserve to have to go through it all again. And, it's doubtful the stuff will run uphill far enough to reach the guys who made GJ possible.

It is true... All of GoJets Delta flying is up for bid... I agree its a real kick in the seat for the Comair people over there. It remains to be seen if Pinnacle will get them, but chances are they will.
It's starting to look like this has been part of a plan set forth by Delta if certain things worked out...
Personally I don't think this has anything to do with GoJets performance, I don't think Delta ever had any plans of keeping GoJet as a long term partner.

Probably the same way DGS (Delta owned) underbid Regional Elite (Delta owned) for ground service RFPs.
