I doubt he goes over 5...I am sure he is on a pretty strict pitch count.
Pretty sure the magic number is still around 80.
We might see him throw about as much as we saw Hudson last Sunday...maybe a bit more(now that I look at it, Hudson only throw one more pitch than Woody did last weekend).

I'm not sure who that says more about, Hudson or Woodruff.
Virtually same pitch count:
4 innings > 1 inning

I hit one @ Jones that I wish had been measured. I just missed a first pitch fastball that was fouled back and the coach yelled "throw it again" which I thought surely they weren't crazy enough to try. Only time in my career I can remember a "perfect contact" when swinging out of my shoes at a ball. That was probably very close to the absolute best I could have ever possibly hit one at any point in my life.
ETA:
Was basically still rising when it cleared the light pole in left center and was found up against the building behind there.

The nice part about it is, you went yard AND closed the coaches' mouth..

Yeah I could always focus better and play better when someone was running their mouth. Wish it had happened more often and/or I had actually made it to a level where I could hear it every day...

Hey, I hear you.
I hit quite a few bombs in JUCO and cleared a few 400' fences in dead center with ease. Could generally put on a pretty good show in BP even with wood. I never hit another ball in any instance high school nor college even remotely like that one. Not in practice, not in a game, never. Haven't seen many IRL that were hit that well either. The only one that springs to mind being hit that well at Dudy Noble that I saw in person was the one Head hit in 03 or 04.

You would have done more than 4 current big leaguers and a kicker for the New England Patriots could say they did.

Zach Grienke
Taylor Tankersly
Tony Sipp
Paul Maholm
Stephen Goskowski
Sipp is the only one that I ever K'd against. He got me twice in a regional game. Never seen anything more electric than the stuff he had that night.
Played Grienke once, Tank twice, Sipp 5x(3x on the hill), Maholm once, Goskowski once. Hit them all pretty well relatively speaking outside of the one game against Sipp. Gulf Coast were bad to play him in center for the top half of double headers, then expect him to pitch the second game. He wasn't nearly the same guy in those circumstances that he was in the stand-alone game in Meridian.

No one gives a frick about your baseball history. 
Glad you hit them well. Whatever that means.

My cousin played 1B with him at Moss Point. I grew up going to their games. I was at the State Championship against South Panola. I think they won but can't really remember.

Yeah, he was a badass for sure. Not sure when he really developed -- but he was straight gas at MGCCC...

I thought you were older than that engie.

Obviously you do -- otherwise you wouldn't be talking shite.
How about this? I'll throw you a cold beer or two next time I'm in Starkville in LFL hanging out with what was arguably the most talented highschool pitcher in 20+ years in the area I get the impression that you are from -- and we can all hang out and discuss the glory days. His lounge is right next to Bundy's...

Turned 25 for 6th time on Egg Bowl week.
Same age as Grienke, Goskowski, and Sipp. 2 years behind Maholm, one behind Tank.

He was a badass at Moss Point, he just couldn't get the grades. If you remember anything about Moss Point there was another kid there by the name of Damarius Bilbo. He went on to play Football, Basketball, and Baseball at Georgia Tech. That team was fricking loaded.
