What's the difference between xFIP and FIP?

What's the difference between xFIP and FIP?

http://www.fangraphs.com/library/pitching/xfip/


..."For this reason, our pitcher Wins Above Replacement (WAR) is based on FIP rather than xFIP. They gave up the home runs so they count against them, but xFIP suggests they probably won’t continue to do so in the future."

While FIP will show what happened, it isn't as predictive of the future as xFIP is. Hence why I show xFIP.

Gotcha. I wish there was more bold letters at the top. At the top it's like a who's who of players that got away or were traded.
