Barreto was recalled from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.
Barreto showed some power in a stint with Oakland earlier in the season, hitting three homers in 18 games, but he had an awful walk rate (1.9 percent) and strikeout rate (42.6 percent). Ryan Dull was optioned to Nashville in a corresponding move.
