Go with Option C Kenny. At least it would give some semblance of the teams who pick last to have some higher picks. I get first pick in this organization selection sometime next month when I have to pick. A high pick will only aid me even more and I will be starting with much more than you will be as it is. It's the best course of action for the league and in the best interest of the league. That is what a commissioner is all about and you know that. Obviously, you have the final call in this matter, but the managers might create an uproar if I get 1st choice in both events lol.  8-)

What happens to the draftees after 8/20?  Do they become free agents that can be picked up after they sign with a ML team?

Yes they would become free agents after the amateur draft (draft is scheduled to start 8/20, not end). I do not yet have a plan on how this would work for minor leaguers. Perhaps the team with the highest signing bonus offer will win the rights to the minor leaguer; it would be a one-time cost.

Sounds good. In my other leagues, minor leaguers are bid on with a signing bonus, which is a one-time fee. That includes any bidding done during the season as well. It's just standard that MLB guys are bid on with a contract and MiLB guys with a bonus.

I suppose everybody who wanted to be heard has responded already and those that haven't are indifferent towards the order. It looks like the amateur draft will be the reverse order of team selection, unless I suddenly get a strong response against it.

Otpion C seems the most fair. A newbie in the fabulous world of fantasy or a person in the last record in this league can have godd playersin the draft and thus compensate for the "weakness of their team"
