Bounty Hunters would be a good team to start investing in, as they're both a strong team for a lot of different areas and will double as scoundrels for heists. As the above comment mentions, you'll hit the credit wall hard sooner or later, so the more you can stash up now the better.
Based on my recent experience trying to get caught up, the legendaries/hero journeys are a good place to focus and will net you a decent core of usable characters:
Rebels ---> Palpatine/Empire ---> R2D2 ---> Commander Luke
Phoenix ---> Thrawn
First Order ---> BB8 ---> Jedi Rey
Bounty Hunters (there they are again!) ---> OT Chewbacca
Empire, First Order and Rebel teams all do well in territory wars/battles, and the legendary/hero characters are all pretty rad. Just getting those done should keep you busy for quite a while. Phoenix doubles as a Rebel team, so you can keep beefing them up for Palp and also use them to get Thrawn.
Personally I wouldn't bother with Sabine just yet, or at least make her a low priority - she's a long farm, generally regarded as an inferior choice to Chopper for getting Thrawn, and by the time you finish her you won't be leaning on Phoenix nearly as much. She mostly becomes useful later on for gimmicky raid teams to exploit Armor Shred, or to replace Ezra if you use him on a Jedi team.
One last note, also from personal experience: while you can get R2 without Palpatine, his Crackling Doom unique makes it exponentially easier, as he will knock off about half the enemy team's health just by standing there. I managed to get 6* R2 without him, but the last tier is actually pretty difficult sans Palp.
