Barris is probably the most arena viable healer at the moment, and is great later on when you zeta her, so she is a good long term investment. GM Yoda is useful with his buff spreading, but is very squishy. Until you get a reliable tank, Ezra is surprisingly good with high dmg, buff removal and assist call. Old Ben is another candidate to bring in as a tank. Ezra is needed for Thrawn, and Ben for CLS so they are sound investments as well. Ben got way better after his recent rework and is the best Jedi tank ATM outside his younger self. If I was to drop anyone, it would be Ashoka. She has little viability later on in the game. I would also consider dropping JKA as well, and getting both Ben and Ezra, while keeping your eyes on GK and Hermit Yoda in the longer term. Once you have a well geared ben or GK, then GM yoda would be an option. He really needs the protection of a solid tank to do his job.
