Then OOTP is not recreating MLB rules as they currently exist. (Unless trade waivers are an option the user can select.)

In real life, trade waivers were revocable, so if a player was claimed the player could be pulled back.
Designating a player for assignment is effectively irrevocable. The player is immediately removed from the 40-man roster, with his final disposition either being released or assigned to a different major or minor league team, depending on what the player's team wants to do.
