LAX has almost hourly service to JFK in the morning to connect to the European flights, and SFO has hung on to two morning flights (8am and 11am, IIRC) that can connect as well.
If you have to connect TATL from the West Coast, isn't the better option just to connect at LHR after flying BA?
I just got off of LAX to JFK, AA does offer a nice product on many routes to NYC. The fact they added JFK to DEN seems to suggest they will maintain key O&D routes from NYC. Ultimately in NYC it may be better to fly multiple airlines anyway
