Most likely if luggage needs to be left behind it will be routed to SJU and arrive a day late.
GeorgeC1 - You seem to have your finger on the pulse of airlines....With unfavorable departure conditions (heat and wind direction) reasonably likely in the summer months, do you think AA has, or is, developing back up plans? Like adding more equipment and limiting seats sold? Or do they just plan on stopping at SJU to add fuel when the wind shifts? Fuel is probably cheaper in PR but I don't know if that offsets the cost of the stop....and potential missed connections in MIA.
Have to agree with Mal, STT seems like the safer bet (in addition to being less costly).
