Money given to Uggla and BJ Upton relegated Braves to adding only
a solid bullpen arm and a utility guy.

Hard to be too upset with the Braves FO, because if Beachy and Medlen were pitching this year, this team would look drastically different, even with BJ striking out every time he comes to the plate. But that contract they gave to him was a bad deal when it happened, and looks like a complete disaster of epic proportions now. With all of the money they gave out to Freeman, Kimbrel, Teheran, Heyward, and Simmonds, it's easy to see why the FO doesn't want to give up young guys who will be under the team control for a long time in order to get a rental arm.
