I had the same problem, I added the following to the .tfignore file

/bin/
/bin/.*
/bin/classes/*

I had to include the classes directory explicitly because it continued to appear in the pending changes.

The bin folder should already be ignored by TFS unless everywhere is configured differently. Do possibly mean that the bin folder is already checked in and you don't want to manipulate it any more? If that is the case simply delete the bin from tfs and it will stop prompting you for check out/check in. Bin folders typically are not under source control

You can use a .tpignore file to ignore files. The easiest way to add the bin directory to your .tpignore is to simply right click on the bin directory in Package Explorer and select the "Ignore" option in the Team menu.
