I agree that I probably should of raised preflop.

Why? Do you really think T9s is the best hand at that point? Or do we have a read that we'll push the limper out if we bet the flop and he missed?

Because it's very good to isolate weak/passive players who will go to showdown with any piece when your hand has absolutely no showdown value, like T9s. It's even better if one of the blinds are likely to come along & go to showdown with any piece as well.
