But it's pretty weak evidence compared to the information Rhett presented 14 years ago, so I'm still sticking to Rhett's 1922 date.

Definitely Frisch was almost strictly a 3rd baseman in 1920, and in 1921 and 1922 he played in a significant amount of games at both 2nd base and 3rd base. So definitely I could see that his 1920 season would have pegged him to be listed as a 3rd baseman if produced in 1921. But then again he also played over 60% of his playing time in 1921 at 3rd base, so he was still probably seen as primarily as a 3rd baseman going into the 1922 season.
I also still agree with Rhett's 1922 assessment as well.
1920 3B 109 games
1920 SS 2 games
1921 3B 93 games
1921 2B 61 games
1922 2B 85 games
1922 3B 53 games
1922 SS 1 game
