The owner is a publicly-traded company. That makes a pretty huge difference vs a private rich (and possibly eccentric) owner. They have not been spending money, and have been falling behind their peers in the NL East. The company probably just wants them to be reasonably competitive at this point, but the Braves aren't making any big moves.
