    Do we have any Baseball Arbitrage scalpers here?

    if so, is Scalping still profitable?

    Almost impossible in today's environment. Unless you're talking about live betting buying and selling.

    I only bet first 5's and most shops open those lines pretty late compared to full game lines. Less time for them to move to present a scalping opp

    Yes

    just dont have the spread or opportunities like in the olden days -- Is it worth doing? That's another question.

    live betting, scraping pennies for hours worth of work not even worth it. One thing also I have noticed is when a team say in college hoops is up by 20 or more, they keep taking the lines off board earlier and earlier in the 4th quarter. Lets not mention the bankroll needed to do it. Hardly worth scraping 15-30 games for a 1% return
