IME baggage at MSP has gotten much worse since the merger. The priority tagged bags seldom come out first. Moreover, the assignment of flights to belts makes no sense: one can see as many as a half dozen unused DL belts while five big flights at the same time are assigned to the same belt, with the resulting mess as a crowd five-deep fights to see/grab their bags. Either this--the simple step of assigning flights to belts--isn't well managed or only a few belts are in working order, which is another sign of bad management. It should be simple to fix this problem after so much time.
