Delta.com seems to have made a change in how it denotes these ships.
It used to refer to the AVOD birds as "73H" vs the "Boeing 737-800," which denoted non-AVOD. Now, "73H" seems to have become "Boeing 737..." and non-AVOD is still "Boeing 737-800."
It's confusing, and all the more reason to invest in a subscription to expertflyer. There, as ClipperDelta said, it's "73H," "738" and "73W."
