Really the SAG wouldnt go into the Baltic until the Soviets had been pounded and their bases either destroyed or rendered combat ineffective - at that point you would see them there most likely escorting and providing fire power for a Marine unit to make a landing in Poland or Kaliningrad or the Baltics

Especially since if all you are using the SAG for is as a Tomahawk platform then you dont need to bring it into a slaughterhouse like the Baltic to do that

If you want a great book describing why going into the Baltic before the enemy air and navy is totally suppressed read Cauldron by Larry Bond where you see what happens to USN ships trying to convoy supplies to Poland and getting ambushed by the French and Germans

and that antiship weapons they faced were nothing like what the Soviets would have brought to the table
