Your list is kind of confusing- why not just list the seats in play, and GOP senators whose incumbency is at risk?

Gideon(D-ME) will be the 50th Democratic seat. Greenfield(D-IA) and Tomlinson(D-GA) will be the 50th or 51st Democratic seat.
The US Senate seats in play.
Democratic held seats are AL(Jones-D) and MI(Peters-D). Jones(D-AL) loses, Peters(D-MI) wins by a single digit margin.
Republican held seats are CO(Gardner-R) loses, AZ special(McSally-R) loses, and NC(Tillis-R) loses.
+2D.
