They've already moved most of the SS's they drafted off position.

 

Well they can’t all go SS now. Maybe more so this year, but we didn’t get the big lumbering 1B/DH Kavadas type pick this year. Their first three picks were all solid up the middle guys highly ranked

Every teams' farm moves guys off SS on a regular basis.

 

Exactly kind of have to, not everyone can play ss. Most guys in MLB played SS/C/CF in highschool, many of the pitchers too and vis versa

Some say more shifts led to more guys swinging for the fences and that led to more strikeouts.

 

I think that is true as far as it goes but the swinging for the fences was happening regardless.

Exactly, and I have no issue drafting 10 highly regarded SSs every 3-5 years.
