That's not right, and it's certainly not how OOTP has worked in prior versions. You may want to trade for a player because you want to develop him in the minors, or have him in the minors as depth for future injuries, but you can't, or don't want to, use a spot on the 40-man roster. So you make the trade and try to clear waivers so he can be assigned to a minor league team. I've been doing this for quite awhile in OOTP, but in OOTP 22 it seems to be unavailable.
