4 used CRJ-900s SKY
+ 7 used CRJ-900s GJT
+19 new E175s SKY
=30 remaining large RJs in Delta's Scope

As for these being "replacement" aircraft: they may be trading out one fleet at SKY for another at ASA but, these are additional aircraft when considering the size of the DCI fleet (regardless who operates them)

I'm not sure how far along Delta is in the 50 seat draw down, but if they're maxing out at 325 large RJ's, that only allows for 125 fiddys. According to DALs last 10-Q filing, they're operating 170 at the moment.
I don't know how many of the 170 are already slated to be parked.

My money is on Shuttle America losing some E-jets in the Delta suit. Why would they let Republic keep the better contract and drop the cheaper one?

Just heard from a pretty good source. Some/most will go to LA, same with the UA order and...........potentially Alaska 175's and or 700's. Sounds like they were right when they told the LA peeps not to worry about the Eagle airplanes. Good news for them if it works out.
