Well as many of you know, I collect Ozhaino Albies. My goal isn't to simply pick up only his gradeable stuff, but to find everything I can of his. I decided on selecting 1 card for each of his available cards (Base to 1/1) and submit it to grade for at least a 9.5 (Unless it's very very limited like the 1/1), and with this being said I am curious on what you expert collectors would say on the card below.
I've never submitted anything for grading and I would like as many opinions as I can on the card both on the auto and the card itself. Any feedback is appreciated!

Auto and centering look good.

Centering is solid. Auto is a little streaky but could just be the scan.
Can't really evaluate more than that.

Appreciate the comments guys! Hopefully no scratches or lines and corners look good. Would you say a solid chance at a 9.5/10?

Centering is a bit off, but not by much

Again, I'm not here to flip this for cash or to make money, this is to fit the PC Mold I have set up for my Albies PC with 1 of each card being a Gem Mint or Higher.
No need to the No comments

Okay come on, you are really expecting us to tell u if its a 9.5/10 when we can really just tell if the centering and auto is good? Even someone said before you asking not if it was a 9.5 that we can't evaluate more than centering and auto

I'm asking if the Auto can wield a 10 and if the Centering can wield a 9.5. Did I not also mention the hopes for good surface and corners. Please don't be one of those "Trolls" who go out trying to assert yourself negatively. I'm here asking for an honest opinion especially on the centering and the Auto hence "/10"
For those who have given their opinions, it is greatly appreciated! Once the card comes in hand I should have a good idea on the surface, corners, and borders.

If you don't have a loupe, just look at it under your oven stove light....just tilt it back and forth....You can easily see if there are any major scratches, etc on surface...
Don't forget the edges....make sure no white on edges

Why don't you send in a lot of your best cards of each and send them in with a 9.5/10 minimum grade requirement. Any of the ones that come back ungraded will only cost like $2 for the review and you can send a different card on the next submission.

Appreciate it! I'm not really knowledgable on the markers for any flaws with a card besides the usual soft corner, major scratch, creases.

Did not know they had that service! That's what I will most likely do. Where do you sign up for that?

You can just do a normal submission I think but put post it notes on each card for minimum 9.5/10
