Waivers Messed Up

I sign a Free Agent, I need to make room on my 40 man roster. I move someone to Designate for assigment w/o putting him on waivers, I add my new FA to my active roster. A day goes by and the player just designated into a minor league roster W/O having to clear waivers. This is not how the system should work. First a lot of veteran players have to give permission to be sent to the minors, secondly any player taken off the 40 man roster has to clear waivers I do believe. This needs to be looked at. I started with the Twins, w/o a draft, I was able to get the top two Free Agents and keep all my key veterans in the minors. Flawed system there. It seems very possible I may win the WS in my first year because of these flaws early in the season. Please look at this stuff.
