Marginal hand early in the game Marginal hand early in the game

I know this is not a very exciting hand, but I don't really know how to play it. Anyone have some thoughts?
The stacks are deep, the hand is marginal and no need to build a large pot with it this early in the game, but feel I can't fold it either.
SB bets like he has a bad pair that can't beat anything and block-bets small on all streets. Feel like I have the best hand most of the time and if I start betting him out of the pot I turn my hand into a bluff and loose value from all his marginal hands.
