The Miami Marlins have traded infielder Jacob Amaya to the Houston Astros for cash considerations and minor-league pitcher Valente Bellozo, per the Houston Chronicle's Matt Kawahara.
The Astros placed pitcher Bennett Sousa on the 60-day IL to make room for Amaya on the 40-man roster and optioned Amaya to Triple-A.
Amaya has appeared in just four MLB games, notching two hits and two RBI in nine at-bats. He was the Marlins' No. 9 prospect before the trade.
