You need to think in terms of "what HTML pages can I present to the user, in what order; and what conditions must be met to move from page 1 to page 2". The other red flag that is waving to me is the 'baseball_approved' attribute. From the description of your workflow, it isn't obvious that you actually want to/need to store unapproved objects in the database. If you don't need to, drop that flag, and just refrain from saving the model until you have an 'approvable' set of data.
