5NL - 44 in BB. Check or Raise it up preflop?

[You're No Daisy]

15th hand at table. I have played against all of these villains before in some capacity whether at 2NL or 5NL. They are all pretty bad.

MP is 40/1/0.7 (200 hands)
CO is 45/4/3.4 (100 hands)
Button is 40/10/1.8 (100 hands)
SB is 20/3/3 (800 hands)

What are we doing here? Are we always raising all pocket pairs in a limped pot no matter if we're out of position? I don't like playing small PPs OOP but are we always raising against opponents who are this bad? Let me know your thoughts PF and on all streets thereafter. And by the way, just moved up from $2NL to $5NL. So I really appreciate all the help everyone has given me in this forum.
