 | | PETERSBURG Lou Piniella, brought home three years ago to revive the Tampa Bay area's baseball team, will not return to manage the Devil Rays in 2006, two baseball sources have confirmed to The Tampa Tribune. |
 | | Agent Alan Nero, who helped engineer the trade that brought Piniella to Tampa Bay from Seattle in October 2002, did not comment on the deal in a voice message he left Wednesday in response to a telephone call Tuesday night from the Tribune. |
 | | If anyone could fix what was wrong with Devil Rays, it was believed to be the fiery Tampa native who won a World Series with the Reds in 1990 and helped put the game on the map in the Pacific Northwest during a decade at the helm of the Seattle Mariners. |
