One of the US sports betting industry leaders, BetMGM Sportsbook opened its doors to Massachusetts residents on March 10, 2023, and the number of new registrations sky-rocketed in the last three weeks. Of course, the recently-concluded big March tournament played a significant role in the surge of new BetMGM Sportsbook MA customers who just wanted to place a couple of bets and spice up the show.
BetMGM’s Massachusetts sportsbook is doing a great job in recognizing the needs of its army of online players, so it has launched its new Signature Bets for Major League Baseball matches. The brand new MLB season kicked off on March 30, and there is going to be so much action, considering there are 12 games per day on average.
Judging by the early lines, the Boston Red Sox are going to have a rough time reaching the playoffs. They are currently at huge +8000 odds to win the title, so for a $10 bet, your potential returns would be $810! That said, we have seen crazier wagers landing in the last decade.
If you ever get tired of standard money lines, totals, and run line wagers, check out the Signature Bets section, which becomes available at least 24 hours before the match starts. Like all the previous seasons, there are going to be 2430 games in total, as every team plays 162 times.
On top of these special options, BetMGM Massachusetts offers many other options for MLB sports bettors, ranging from Player Props to Spreads, One Game Parlays, and much more.
This bookie is also very generous with its welcome packages, bonuses, promotions, and BetMGM Rewards loyalty program, so make sure to check them out.
- Welcome offer activates if your first bet loses
- Great mobile betting experience
- Variety of betting markets on offer
*Bonus Bets Expire in 7 Days. One New Customer Offer Only. Additional terms apply.
How to Find BetMGM MLB Signature Bets
So, first of all, you are going to need an account with BetMGM Massachusetts. The operator is running a generous welcome offer of up to $1000 first bet insurance, where bettors will get a refund of their first bet if it does not land (paid in free bets). Check out our full BetMGM Sportsbook MA Review for more details on this promotion.
First, create a BetMGM Sports account and make the first deposit, then navigate to the main lobby, select MLB on the upper carousel, and click on the desired match.
Signature Bets should be located in the middle of the most popular markets, and from there, you should make a selection, add it to the bet slip, and place the wager.
Here is the list of the most common Signature Bets you will be able to find for any MLB match. Just remember to search for them no sooner than 24 hours before the game starts. Most of these wagers are quite generous, and you will have difficulty finding anything below the -110 line.
- Outcome of The First Pitch (Ball, Strike, In-Play)
- 1st Place Appearance for Specific Players (Hit by Pitch, Strikeout, Single, Extra Base Hit, Other)
- Either Pitcher to Strike Out the Side in Specific Innings
- Pitcher’s Duel (Both Pitchers to Record 5+, 6+, or 7+ Strikeouts)
- Centerfielders Combined Bases (6+, 7+, and more total bases for batters)
As the game progresses, there are going to be new Signature Bets added for every specific match, so, in theory, you could have a couple of wagers for every inning.
Keep an Eye Out for the Lion’s Boost Every Day
Another thing worth mentioning for sports bettors who enjoy betting on MLB daily and have an account with BetMGM Sportsbook Massachusetts is to keep an eye out for sudden price boosts called the Lion’s Boost.
These are usually available during prime times and when a big match is around the corner. Look at the top left of the screen and see if any boost is available.
On the Arizona Diamondbacks to beat the LA Dodgers, and 10+ total runs scored, the initial line was +340, and with the Lion’s Boost, it got up to +425 — not a bad increase if you were thinking of laying the bet anyway!

Can You Beat the Streak?
MGM Resort is an official sponsor of Major League Baseball for 2023, and the brand is encouraging everyone to test their baseball knowledge and predicting abilities with the famous Beat The Streak free game.
Just in case you have not heard of it yet, players are competing against each other to form the longest winning streak possible in predicting players to get a hit in their first at-bat.
You need to select two MLB games weekly. If your predictions land in the first week, you will carry over the streak of two wins into the next week. If the following pick loses, you are back to zero. Fifty-seven consecutive wins will get you a handsome prize of $5.6 million.
There is no entry fee, so we recommend jumping right into the fun. There are multiple prizes available, including scratch cards, gifts, and cash rewards.
