Newbie Question

Hi ! I am totally new to the game and I have encountered a problem I am not sure how to deal with.

I started a Major League Game, managing my favorite Cleveland Indians. The team has its 40-man roster full and has already 4 players with major league contracts designated for assignment. I cannot proceed in the game before settling their DFA status, but I do not exactly know what to do. I do not want to trade or release these players but cannot keep them all on my active roster. If I try to assign them to the minors after adding them to the secondary roster the game tells me that they have to clear waivers first.
Does that mean the assignment is not possible ? How can I proceed with the game without releasing those players or adding them to the 25-man roster ?

I am sure this is a bit of a stupid question but I really do not know what to do and would appreciate your help. THX a lot in advance ...
