Since English is a difficult language, y is only sometimes a vowel. It depends on how the y is being used.
Y is a vowel when makes a syllable or completes a diphthong.
Y is a vowel in the words rhythm, system, syllable, mystery, and cyst. Here it takes the place of the vowels E and I. In the word "boy" it creates a diphthong (oi), so it is a vowel. Y is considered a consonant only when it appears at the start of a syllable where there is another vowel (yam, yet), creating the "yuh" sound.
In the word player, the "yuh" sound is heard, so Y is a consonant. Less clear are the words "day" and "obey" where the "silent Y" may be considered either a consonant or a vowel.
y has always been a consonant and never hasn't been it still is
Y is a consonant when it makes the "yuh" sound typical of the letter Y (the sound it makes in words like yellow, yes and yak). It is also a consonant if it follows another vowel at the end of a word, e.g. money, coy.
If Y makes a vowel sound (usually the long or short i sound, or the ee sound), or is the only non-consonant in a syllable, it is acting as a vowel. Examples are the words gym, fly, style, silly, and ytterbium.
