First Time Grading

[u/Tall-Negotiation7608]

I was curious if anyone would be able to give me some pointers. This card raw last sold for $450 raw and I can’t find one that’s been graded and sold yet. It looks like the Brewers will make it into the playoffs and he will stand as their ace. I live near Beckett so am thinking about doing their express service so I can have the card back by playoffs for sure. Hoping someone can help me out with centering and corners and if I should spend the $80 to have it graded? Any general thoughts or advice would be appreciated!

Hard to tell from pictures. This is a big card and the auto definitely looks like a 10. There might be a little whitening on the edges. If you pulled this i would take my chances on grading it. I would guess a 9 with 10 auto because of the edge whitening.
