The repainting comes to a stop during the summer months. They'll resume repainting by Oct/Nov. the plan is to repainting the entire 737 fleet, even though they will start parking the classics (3AA-3DL) around the time the Maxes come on line.

Still around 37 frames in the classic livery. Mostly 3C-, 3G- and 3J- tail numbers.

Any idea how many 737s will be parked in the next couple of years?

No clue, other than they will come from the batch of Classics (the first 75 frames, 3AA-3DL.) These are the oldest and highest time frames. Methinks it will be a one for one replacement for every Max that comes on line.

That was for the LUS fleet. The company stopped repainting LAA aircraft to accelerate finishing the US fleet, now they will catch up.
