will be interesting to see what they do, i bet there is a decent chance they fly those seats empty if they cannot reconcile who is supposed to be upgraded. that or it will be a free for all of sorts.
did AS fly out their own CSRs from Seattle or is DL still handling the flight? what time are you leaving, it's starting to get pretty late there.
