This is a simple task, but it took some time for me to udnerstand, as MSBuild was a new thing to me.
First, Get the latest code from TFS is TFS task, not MSBUild task. So, you can use tf.exe command-line utility.

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\tf.exe" get $/root/MSBUILD/Team/Sapphire /force /recursive

the batch file is like this

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\tf.exe" get $/root/OccupyingSpace/GoYocal /force /recursive
"C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\msbuild.exe" "C:\TEMP\Test_GoYocalBuild.proj" /t:Clean;Test
pause

You need SDC taks in order to build .sln file. Please download it from codeplex. I created a simple proj file that builds .sln file

<Project ToolsVersion="3.5" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
    <Import Project="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath)\Microsoft\VisualStudio\TeamBuild\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targets" />
    <Import Project="C:\vss\root\MSBUILD\bin\Microsoft.Sdc.Common.tasks"/>
    <Target Name="Test" >
        <Tools.DevEnv
            VisualStudio="9.0"
            Path="C:\VSS\root\OccupyingSpace\GoYocal\GoYocal.sln"
            Config="Release"
            OutputFolder="C:\VSS\root\OccupyingSpace\GoYocal\src\app\bin"
            Clean="true">
        </Tools.DevEnv>
    </Target>

    <PropertyGroup>
        <TFSServerName>http://rbi101:8080</TFSServerName>
        <SourceControlMainDirectory>$/root/OccupyingSpace/GoYocal</SourceControlMainDirectory>
        <WorkspaceName>myworkspace</WorkspaceName>
        <TfCommand>"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\tf.exe"</TfCommand>
        <DevenvCommand>"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe"</DevenvCommand>
        <WorkingDirectory>c:\</WorkingDirectory>
    </PropertyGroup>
</Project>

After I used the batch file, I realised I could use <Exce Command=”> for any dos command. So, I moved “GetLatest” bit into msbuild proj.
Also, included remote copy to the server. The final codes are like the below

batch file

"C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\msbuild.exe" MSBUld_Build.proj /t:GetLatest;Build;Deploy
pause

and msbuild proj file

<Project ToolsVersion="3.5" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
<Import Project="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath)\Microsoft\VisualStudio\TeamBuild\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targets" />
