Don't be so hard on Coulson. Given that he has zero reason to trust anything that Raina says, he probably figured she was setting up a trap to kidnap (or kill) Skye, whom he isn't willing to sacrifice. It's also pretty clear that he had already set in motion a series of events to extract Simmons from HYDRA, so he wasn't really sacrificing her at all. Since Simmons was getting invited to HYDRA board meetings, he probably knew that her cover was suddenly in more danger, and had tasked Bobbi to enact an extraction plan. Raina's revealing the photograph wasn't really changing anything in that plan. It was an inconvenience to Bobbi, at worst.
Coulson likely made a choice between:
- Possibly sacrificing Skye, while still needing to extract Jemma, and
- Not needing to sacrifice Skye, while still extracting Jemma.
As May and Bobbi both mentioned, "Coulson has a plan."
(to which Skye should have responded, "What percentage of a plan does does he have?" )
