Here are some more details on each…

Baseball's a fairly high-volume sport, which means you could be putting several units in play per night. In those situations, you want as much in your bankroll as possible to stay afloat in case of a losing streak.
BetMGM makes that easy with their $500 instant deposit match. You deposit $10, they give you $10 in bonus funds. You deposit $500, you get $500 in bonus funds. And everything in between.
Turning these bonuses into cash is easy, too, thanks to the measly 2x rollover required. With so many different ways to bet on America's pastime, that won't take too long to achieve.
DraftKings Sportsbook
- Offer: $1,000 sign-up bonus

DraftKings is one of the most well-known brands in the industry, and they also offer the largest potential bonus for new users — a thousand bucks, otherwise known as a dime in the biz.
The first $500 comes in the form of a first bet match. Similar to a deposit match, DraftKings will match the size of the first bet you make in free bets. For example, if you bet $100 on a lofty over 12.5 at Coors Field, you'd get $100 worth of free bets.
The second $500 portion comes in the form of a deposit match. Check out the full details for DraftKings’ bonus offer here.
FanDuel Sportsbook

Those of you just getting started betting might have some butterflies in your stomach when making your first bet. Well, those butterflies will be silenced thanks to FanDuel's risk-free bet up to $500.
How does it work? Well, if you win your first bet, no worries. If you lose, you'll get however much you bet in the form of free bets, which need to be rolled over only 1x.
There are a few strategies bettors can use with this. For example, you could use it like a lottery ticket and bet on something with some serious risk (the Rockies to win the World Series, for example). You could make a normal bet like a moneyline or over/under with close to even odds. Or, you could bet an uncomfortable amount of money on a big favorite. Normally if it lost, you'd be in big trouble, but with this you can recoup your losses.
